About Continue
Continue is pushing its coding assistant from in-editor edits toward agent fleets and PR workflows.
Continue is an open-source AI coding assistant spanning VS Code, JetBrains, and a CLI. Recent releases broadened model support (GPT-5 Codex, Grok Code Fast 1), made edits apply instantly, and standardized MCP server configuration via JSON, while newer work (Shareable Agents, a Code Review Inbox) extends it beyond single-file editing toward shareable workflows and PR triage.
